<b>The national bestselling author of #HorrorBookTok sensation <i>The Troop</i> returns with a heart-pounding novel of terror about a young woman searching for her missing friend and uncovering a shocking truth.</b> <p/>On a sunny morning in June, Margaret Carpenter wakes up to find a new iPhone on her doorstep. She switches it on to find a text from her best friend, Charity Atwater. The problem is, Charity's been missing for over a month. Most people in town--even the police--think she's dead. <p/>Margaret and Charity have been lifelong friends. They share everything, know the most intimate details about one another...except for the destructive secret hidden from them both. A secret that will trigger a chain of events ending in tragedy, bloodshed, and death. And now Charity wants Margaret to know her story--the <i>real</i> story. In a narrative that takes place over one feverish day, Margaret follows a series of increasingly disquieting breadcrumbs as she forges deeper into the mystery of her best friend--a person she never truly knew at all...<br><br><b>Author:</b> Nick Cutter<br><b>Publisher:</b> Gallery Books<br><b>Published:</b> 10/29/2024<br><b>Pages:</b> 384<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Hardcover<br><b>Weight:</b> 1.21lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.91d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9781668020975<br><br><b>Review Citation(s): </b><br><i>Library Journal</i> 03/01/2024 pg. 1
